In England in the late 17th century, a guard at Windsor Castle was accused of being asleep on duty. His defence at the court－martial (军事法庭)was that since he had heard the clock of St. Paul's strike 13, 20 miles away in London, he could have been asleep.
The court laughed at the idea that the sound of the bells of St. Paul's could carry so far. The sentry was sentenced to death. It was later verified （核实 ）, however, that the clock of St. Paul's did strike 13 of 12 times on that night. Saved by the bell, the guard was released.
